Why isn’t there a certification Motivational Interviewing? I’m actually on a committee within the Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT) that is creating a certification in Motivational Interviewing, but it is years away from launching. Important questions have to be addressed first …what does it mean to be certified in Motivational Interviewing? How do you measure competency? Plus, how long does certification last for? We all know we can stray from skills over time.
